Academic Programs
Scientific research
Research areas within the Department of Information Systems (IS) lie at the intersection of advanced technologies and strategic management. The focus extends beyond “how systems are built” (as in Information Technology) to “how to maximize the value derived from these systems within business environments.”
1. Business Intelligence and Data Analytics (Business Intelligence – BI)
-
Predictive Analytics:
Employing machine learning techniques to forecast consumer behavior or market fluctuations. -
Artificial Intelligence in Decision-Making:
Examining managerial trust in algorithm-generated decisions (Augmented Intelligence). -
Real-time Business Intelligence:
Analyzing streaming data from social media platforms and IoT sensors to enhance operational performance. -
Interactive Dashboards (Data Visualization):
Investigating optimal methods for presenting complex data to support rapid decision-making.
2. E-Business
-
Platform Economy:
Studying business models such as Uber and Airbnb and their impact on traditional markets. -
Conversational Commerce:
Utilizing chatbots and generative AI to improve shopping experiences and customer service. -
Digital Supply Chains (Blockchain in Supply Chain):
Applying blockchain technology to enhance transparency and trace product movement from production to consumers. -
Personalized Digital Marketing:
Researching the “privacy versus personalization” dilemma and methods for targeting customers without violating data privacy.
3. Management Information Systems (Management Information Systems – MIS)
-
Digital Governance and Information Security:
Investigating managerial policies that safeguard institutional data against breaches (with emphasis on administrative, not only technical, aspects). -
Technology Adoption:
Studying factors that influence employee acceptance or resistance toward implementing new systems (such as ERP systems). -
Remote Work and Virtual Teams:
Assessing the impact of technology on employee productivity and organizational communication within hybrid work environments. -
